Haven't used Mirchi for a little while,however decided to have a curry as we've used them for many years, even through their name changes/rebranding and never had a bad meal....until now.... Portion sizes have dwindled dramatically as we ordered the same as we used to and was always stuffed, I could have eaten all of our takeaway on my own, the chicken tikka starter was pathetic, four small pieces of chicken which were slightly overcooked , the bombay aloo portion has been halved, as has the main curry dish, also the naan was much smaller and rather chewy like the dough has been overworked, also nothing much was hot only slightly warm. Overall we're shocked, prices haven't changed but the portions have and will definitely not be using them again!!!

I liked my food, but my companions were not impressed.

Beautiful food, excellent service and very clean. Lamb tikka korma was great?Lamb was 10 out of 10. Dropped in on the off chance as we were passing through and very glad we did. If we?re every near metheringham again we would definitely come back.

Went for takeaway today, at 3.35 as opening hours state 3.00 p.m to 10.00 p.m on a Sunday, both on website and on door. Waited outside until 4.45, when a person came to the door and said they were not open until 5.00 p.m. I asked why it says 3.00 p.m, person said it always says that but it is actually 5.00 p.m. Suggested it should be changed, but person shrugged and went back inside, saying to come back at 5.00 p.m. Will not be returning!

Food flavours and spice best around, portions getting too small especially the rice,shame the service isn't as good as the food.

Visited as a family of 7 with children aged between 8 and 19. Worst service I have ever experienced, we were the only people in the restaurant. Drinks came staggered and were asked numerous times what we had ordered. Food took a very long time to come, and when it did was only warm and portion sizes were poor. Did get a small discount on paying but didn?t distract from the fact it was a very disappointing experience. Not worth driving out of town and won?t be visiting again.

Thus has been the worst takeaway I've had my entire life. Don't waste your money here. Go to home curries in branston instead there food is delicious I only tried mirchi cause branston was closed Tuesday, and we really fancy some Indian

Not bad food, could be a lot better. Luke warm. I've ordered a delivery from them on 2 separate occasions and both time's had to wait. This time me and my wife ordered a delivery at 3:30pm nice and early. They took the menu details but there was no delivery driver. Didn't get food until 7pm. I could of bought the ingredients from the co op and made my own curry. I hope they get better, it's a shame the food isn't too bad but I don't think we'll be ordering anything from them again.

Just had a delivery on the 5th may was told at point of ordering it would be here by 20:00 was nearly an hr late. The starters we ordered were tiny they were barely a mouthful and missed off the dips from the order for the popadoms. But the curry?s had a good flavour so will give them a second chance at some point. I won?t be in a rush though which is a shame as this is my local take away.

I recently ordered from Mirchi for my birthday. After 2 hours waiting I called to see where my food was, to be told no orders were waiting. After repeating my order number to them, the lady on the phone said, Oh, 5 minutes and hung up.Food arrived 20 minutes later, stone cold and congealed fat on the dishes. Half inedible even after reheating. £30 curry for my birthday, ended up in the bin and I had no food to eat.Complained and had all my complaints iland request for a refund ignored. So im writing as at the very least, deal with your errors, dont charge the customers for your mistakes.I was a regular customer, but id rather drive to somewhere with customer care.

We had been for a sit in meal a few months ago, and could not fault our meal and the service. My daughters birthday yesterday, we got a take away. I?m angry and upset at the quality of our meal. The korma was lacking chicken pieces. The lamb pieces were tough. Our pershwari naan was disgusting, it had a yellow powder inside. I have no idea what this thick yellow powder was throughout the naan.

Absolutly awful Tikka Biryani take away last night it went straight in the bin, 6 small, thin cubed pieces of what was supposed to be chicken it was dry and so overcooked and un reconisable as chicken ? Completely tasteless and a chef's meat curry that we couldn't find any meat in.Such a shame as we had a fantastic meal last year there, needless to say I will not be recommending or returning.

So out i go for another attempt at a really good curry while I'm working away. 8 miles I travel to this place,I sit down and order a cobra,5 mins later the waiter who speaks little english says the cobra has run out but I can have a magners,I should have walked then. Charging for popadoms and dips is something I'll never get used to but they do 80p per dip. Onion bhaji ordered and a spicy curry with pilau rice and a keema naan,each course took an age to come,tiny little bhajis were ok then to the main,I laughed when the rice came it was so small and the curry was in a big bowl to make it look alot more than it was.It was ok the curry but nothing special. The keema naan was excellent though,anyway £30 for the lot wish I'd stayed in. I've give it a poor rating based on my experience of the whole night and not just the tiny portions of the food.

We were regular visitors. Last [Feb] were disspointing. The curry was not Hot as I ordered. When complained we were given a bowl of fresh chillies! Tried again for last time with Saturday 8.pm for 4 people. HORRIBLE! Ordered a £12 sharing starter. 1 burnt and Black lamb chop. 1 finger size sausage and 2 oxo cube size chicken cube with some lettuce arrived! It did not even come as a starter. Everything came together. I rarely ever complain. Not this time. The waiter said... OK No charge for the starter. No apology Nothing. Our curries was not Hot with spices etc. It was ordered HOT please. My sons coconut dish has lumps of sugar in it! One out of 4 were acceptable and it was luke warm. The garlic bread was Ok The wine was good!!!! £100 and a total waste of my money .People..Do not waste your money in this place. Finally ...it was cold. Even the waiters had coats on. The only thing that keeps it going is DILIVEROO. You have been told. Try Asda....Much better and Save £80.
